I now own 5 pairs of these type of trainers, Why? Simple, because they are an absolute marvel on my feet. I am a size 7 in normal shoes but in trainers I am a 7.5, plenty of room for trainer socks. They do not make my feet look bigger, the side material wraps around supporting my feet when the laces are fastened and the underneath cushions my soles perfectly. Walking or running in these trainers are blissful. The colour combination are a delight, I can mix and match with numerous outfits, for day or night. I have even bought a few pairs for my hubbie because they are that good to have. and he has pass quite a few compliments about them too. Buy a pair and see fir yourself.
